Just curious, but noticed Mark 2,s some with gold lettering, some with chrome. Is there a signifacance to this!, thought it might be Zephyr and Zodiac, but no, thats not it unless a lot of people have gone to a lot of trouble.

Some zodiacs-I think was optional.

the zodies were gold badges weren't they!

No need for you guys to think or wonder - Zodi's had gold badges.

OK, So Zephyr,s with gold badges must have been pirated off Zodiac,s then.

If it's a Zephyr badge that's gold, someone must have had it plated. You can't pirate a Zodiac badge for a Zephyr, coz they're spelt different.

Now, on the other hand a Mk1 Zodiac had both a Zephyr & Zodiac badge on each corner of the bonnet and boot, and they were both gold. The Zodiac badge replaced the Six badge used for a Zephyr. But all Zephyr badges were chrome.

Back to clarify the first Q then.
Have you seen a gold MkII Zephyr badge!
